THE BOTTOM LINE An advertisement by Funnel Design Group Written by Mark Moad, illustrated by Sean Ashby

I frequent the blog of James Robert Watson, a previous instructor of one of my favorite classes of all time, The History of Visual Communication. Dr. Watson is not only one of the greatest design instructors I've ever had, he is one of the greatest instructors period. I've never learned so much useful and interesting information in my life AND actually retained it well. I could go on and on about his incredibly awesome teaching style and how he thoroughly and actively engages his students, but the entire point of this post was to re-post a comic from his blog by the Funnel Design Group that I thought communicated very effectively my view and probably every formerly and classically educated designer's view on...well, I am not going to verbally explain anymore because the visuals do it so well themselves, as all effective visual communication should.

About Me

I am a continuously emerging artist and visual communicator and in addition to sharing my design process, this blog serves as the outlet to express my thoughts, observations, and perspectives on art & design. Both surround us on a regular basis and both have been around since the beginning of human life. Even so, I find that among non-designers especially, design is highly misunderstood...and I find that very interesting. Therefore, this thought blog serves as a form of verbal expression of those perspectives I find particularly interesting. So as much as this blog is for myself so that I am encouraged to write more, I hope that it will also serve to inspire or even enlighten others.
